You've accurately determined how Subversion is processing your externals definition. But it appears you aren't familiar with the general way in which Subversion processes URLs/paths and revisions. I suggest that you first read this: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.advanced.pegrevs.html Then, change your external definition to instead be: /shared/trunk/MySharedProjectBeforeRename@100 MySharedProjectBeforeRename -- C.
